Modern parallels to Martin Luther King Jr.'s civil disobedience can be found in black theater, where the black body challenges the normative assumptions of classical texts and modes of creation. This is a theater of civil disobedience, which this book frames to challenge the hostility that still exists between theater and black identity.
